Sylvan 8524 Mirage LZ keeps an estimated 65% of its value after 5 years — #3099 of 5915 boats VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Sylvan 8524 Mirage LZ retains an estimated 65% of its value after five years, ranking #3099 of 5915 boats we track. That is 3 points above the 62% five-year average for Pontoon in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Sylvan 8524 Mirage LZ sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $32,156 it falls to around $21,030 by year five — a five-year loss near $11,126, about $6.10 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Sylvan 8524 Mirage LZ bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
